It was always like that.
There was one post every 2-3 days a couple years ago.
Wasn't raddle one of the for chuds by chuds reddit clones?
raddle is an old reddit clone which was always inhabited mostly by alts of extremely online anarchist ziq
and that's not even speculation or anything, it was a whole thing ages ago where ziq alienated most of their actual users when it was revealed that most of the site's activity was their alts. they apologized, then they later un-apologized and bragged about it
my main memory of that place was someone going on a rant about socialism being a "dusty 20th century ideology" and really everybody should be going in on something called third world illegalism
anarchist
Hell nah we don't claim that guy
Yikes. So then this is just how it is on the site? Is the security concerns I heard about also true?
